The ancient New Testaments were written on papyrus, which was a material made from the pith of the papyrus plant. Papyrus sheets were formed by weaving together thin strips of the plant's stem and then dried to create a writing surface. Some early New Testament manuscripts were also written on parchment, which is a material made from animal hides.
